This is a unique opportunity for an enthusiastic, innovative and motivated scientist to join the Early Product Development teams at our Gothenburg site. Join us and become a member of a dedicated team, working with drug delivery of challenging drug molecules closely together with other skill experts in our common effort to drive the projects forward.

AstraZeneca is a global, science-driven biopharmaceutical company. We are dedicated to discovering, developing, and delivering innovative, meaningful medicines and healthcare solutions that enrich the lives of patients.

Pharmaceutical Sciences is a newly created department within our Innovative Medicines and Early Development (IMED) Biotech unit. The vision for Pharmaceutical Sciences is to deliver the therapies of the future through scientific leadership in drug delivery. Our portfolio of projects include traditional small molecules to nucleotide based therapies and nanomedicines across AstraZeneca's therapy areas.

Within Early Product Development in Gothenburg, a sub-division of Pharmaceutical Sciences, we focus on developing inhalation, oral and parenteral products for our drug projects. We have the responsibility to progress the candidate compounds from early pre-clinical phase up to Proof of Concept in humans.

We are now looking for a skilled formulation experimentalist who will focus on developing formulations for delivery of small molecules, but also more complex biological molecules. The role covers development of drug products to be used in both preclinical phase and early clinical phase (phase I/IIa).

Prepare documentation and formal reports in accordance with current standards and where appropriate to GMP. Generate documentation for regulatory submissions.
Apply science and technical knowledge to drug projects and the evaluation of new technologies /processes. Collaboration with specialist scientific and/or technology networks.
May supervise co-workers and contribute to their training and development by acting as coach/mentor.

Essential Requirements
Degree (preferably MSc or PhD) in a discipline relevant to formulation science, pharmaceutical technology, surface & colloid chemistry or equivalent qualifications.
Experience in working with formulation development or similar product development.
Geniune interest in experimental work and hands-on problem solving.
Delivery focused and ability to utilize scientific and innovative thinking.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

Desirable Requirements
Technical competence in the field of drug product formulation development for inhalation, oral and/or parenteral administration.
Experience of different formulation systems/matrixes for biological molecules.
Ability to author scientific publications and/or CMC regulatory documentation.
Understanding of suitable quality standards (e.g. GLP and GMP)
